Valor L210 blue flame kerosene heater

Very beautiful heater!!! Congrats!!!

Nice heater you have ..it will heat your room.very well ....i have an even smaller heater the POD junior from 1962 it warms my livingroom too almost 19° celcius andi it consumes 1.5 liter per 10 hrs lampoil on averidge

Superb. I'd really like one of these, I'm in the UK and have not been able to heat my home this year. So we have used an open fireplace (had the chimney cleaned and fireplace renovated), electric blankets etc. It still cost a heap of money using a gas boiler to heat water. Anyway, something like this would be smashing for nights when you've been busy and don't want the trouble of making a fire.The sort of night when everyone's been busy until late, and it isn't worth the effort getting a fire going because everyone is going to bed in a couple of hours. Still, it is not nice to sit there in the cold after a tiring day!

I bought one. I am trying to repair service it but struggling to get the rust off of the chrome. I cant get the top off either to clean the chimney. Lots of surface rust came off tho. It feels better

The Aladdin blue flames are nice (I've got one of the "Model 16" versions), But they're no more efficient or powerful than any of the other 3" circular wick "blue flame" type heaters, so they're no more use as a heater than a Valor, or any other 3" BF unit......... They do look cool with their "Exoskeleton" cage around them though. :D If you're still looking for an Aladdin blue flame, it's probably best to go for one of the variants that have the vertical wick height adjuster knob on the tank and the link arms that hold onto brass nipples on the wick, rather than the one's with the horizontal adjuster and tube wick carrier though. The tubular metal wick carriers of the more common (In the UK at least) Blue flame 16, 27, 32, and 37 models DO eventually wear out, and they're pretty much unobtainable as "new old stock" everywhere now. Serviceable used wick carriers are currently going for almost as much as a rough version of one of the whole heaters that use them ! With the scarcity of them, the simplicity of their design, and the inflated price, I'm surprised no enterprising Chinese company hasn't started using any CNC laser cutter down time to cut out blank sheets of tinplate to make short run batches of these yet? Also, if you restore an Aladdin BF, when reassembling it, you need to make sure everything lines up properly. Fit the burner basket to the tank and check the central wick tube has an even gap all around it for the wick. Adjust that by carefully distorting the angle of the central tube. Then fit the tank to the frame with the full chimney installed. The chimney can move about a little, but not a huge amount, so to make it line up with the burner, you need to use the (About 1/8") clearance that the font's mounting studs have in their holes on the frame. If this isn't enough adjustment, you can distort the frame slightly to get it perfect. once all this is done you should get that nice iconic "Flame crown" with the same height and angle of flame all around the wick. Where you can usually get away with even up to a 2" blue flame burner in your home without too much trouble (Depending on how draft free your home is), the 3" burners are pushing that a bit, and even when setup perfectly, they tend to put out just enough carbon monoxide to be a concern in a modern draft free room, so anyone reading this who's running one, get at least one of the CO alarms that has an LCD readout, and keep an eye on it. Using that you'll be able to work out through trial and error how much you need to crack a window open to get enough fresh airflow and keep the carbon monoxide below the 9ppm level that all the health authorities seem to agree is the maximum safe constant limit. Most 3" burners will kick more than enough heat out into a room to overcome the amount lost through a slightly open window.

nice kerosene heater. I bet because it is blue flame, it is odorfree.

Show me nothing
